Common problem on Ford's.
The only solution that I have found is replacement.

im not positive if u can do it on those lenses but if u can try to make a small hole in the botton corner of each lens and if any moiture gets in it should automatically run right out of the holes

a fix that may work if you can do it yourself, this is familiar to
Mustangers as the 87-93 headlights are similar , try drilling two holes
(1/8 or not much larger hole at the bottom corners of the headlight)
drill this at a slight angle to get it to drain. If it doesn't work or has gone
milky already, get one or both from a aftermarket body shop supply , much cheaper than Ford and almost the same if not the same. Try ebay
for these too---- but first try the drilling holes, it has worked for many.
If you can't find these locally ask a helpful body shop where they get them from, you may be able to do these yourself as they are easy and save a lot.
